How the visit works
Each visit runs to the same pattern: sheeting and protection first, make the system safe, carry out the ventilation duct cleaning, clear away and hand over the paperwork. On site, the work takes a shift or two for a small system, longer for a whole building. For a village or hamlet like Garlinge Green, tell us about narrow lanes, gates and parking when you book.
- We agree timings that suit the building, including evenings and weekends.
- We open the ductwork through its access panels.
- Before photos are taken and the ducts cleaned section by section.
- Grilles and diffusers are cleaned and refitted.
- After pictures are taken and the certificate and report issued.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any sign-in, permit or induction we need
- Name a contact who can let us in at the agreed time

Common questions in Garlinge Green
Can you clean school ventilation in Garlinge Green during the holidays?
Yes. Half-terms and the summer break are the natural time for school work. Food Standards Agency records list about 2 schools, colleges and universities with registered kitchens within about a mile and a half of Garlinge Green. Tell us your holiday dates and we will book the visit for when the site is empty.
Can the work in Garlinge Green be done at night or at weekends?
Yes, evening, overnight and weekend work is normal for us. Your customers, staff or residents in Garlinge Green needn’t be disturbed. Tell us your opening hours when you ask for a quote.
Will we have to shut during the visit?
Not typically. The area we’re working in has to be out of use while we’re there, so the visit goes in a quiet slot.
Do we get a certificate after the clean?
Yes, a TR19® certificate and pictures. The report lists what was cleaned, anything not reached and the next inspection date.
How much time does a ventilation clean need?
As a guide, it takes from one overnight visit to a phased programme over several weeks. Large buildings can be phased, often out of hours, to fit around the building.
How much notice do you need?
It depends on the time you need and how big the job is. Tell us your preferred dates when you ask for a quote, and for anything urgent, ring our 24/7 emergency line.
Do you inspect before cleaning?
Yes, on every job. We check the layout, access and condition, so the quote is fixed before any work starts.
What do you do to protect the area?
Floors and surfaces near the work are sheeted before work begins, and waste is contained as we go. Before we leave, we tidy up and clean down.
Part by part
Extract ductwork
Washroom extracts handle damp air, so the dust tends to cling. They’re cleaned and their condition recorded.
Offices and retail
Refits in commercial space often leave construction dust in the ducts. Cleaning before the new occupants move in makes sense.
Towns and villages near Garlinge Green
What else we do in Garlinge Green
Leave it or put it right?
Facilities teams are regularly asked to show evidence of ventilation hygiene. A TR19® certificate and photo report from a recent clean give them that. Systems in rural buildings are often out of sight and out of mind.
You will not find a price list here, because the cost depends on the site in front of us. Call for a fixed quote, and we will explain what it covers.

- One contact for all your sites in London and the South East
- Out-of-hours work and a 24/7 emergency line
Common problems we fix in Garlinge Green
Filters never catch everything, so fine dust settles in supply ductwork over the years. Extract ducts pick up dust, fibres and fluff from the rooms they serve.
The symptoms we are asked about most include:
- Blocked general extract ductwork
- Dusty supply ductwork that hasn’t been cleaned in years
- Dust marks around grilles and ceiling diffusers
- Ductwork that hasn’t been inspected
For buildings in and around Garlinge Green, TR19® Air cleaning starts with an inspection.
What your quote should include
- What’s included in the scope, part by part
- Whether VAT is included
- Their accreditations, such as BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite, CHAS or SafeContractor
- When the next visit should be, and why
Looking after it afterwards
Simple habits between visits make a real difference. We recommend:
- Make sure nothing is stacked against extract grilles
- Book the next inspection on the date the report recommends
- Include grilles in the cleaning rota
- Store cleaning certificates where auditors can find them
The report includes a recommended date for the next inspection, in line with the risk-based approach of TR19® Air. Diary it right away so it isn’t missed.
Regular inspection is the core of TR19® Air. Inspecting on a schedule catches build-up before it becomes a big clean.
What affects the quote in Garlinge Green
The quote reflects the site in front of us. We take into account:
- How many systems or sites are involved
- Working hours and out-of-hours timing
- One-off work versus a regular cycle
- Travel, parking and unloading
Leaving it longer rarely makes the work cheaper. Problems in a system tend to grow, which can make the next visit longer. If you are not sure what’s needed, call us on 0345 646 2711, or email photos for straight advice and a fixed quote.
Asking for a quote
Photos let us diagnose from a distance. Try to include:
- When the site is open and when it’s quiet
- A few general shots of the system
- Your last certificate, test record or report
- Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall
Quotes are quick. Send a few details and pictures, and we normally reply with a fixed quote within one working day. Where a survey is needed, we arrange a time that suits the site.
Multi-site and managed buildings
Whether it’s one building or many, the standard is the same: the system surveyed, the price fixed, the visit fitted around trading and everything written up afterwards.
When the building owner and the occupier are different, it’s worth checking the lease for who maintains the systems. We’re happy to deal with either side, and the report can go to both.
